AV Engineer with 10 years of experience. Looking to advance

Hello Everyone,

Like I state in the title, I have been working in AV for 10 years. So far I have been working as a Systems Engineer/Field Engineer at rather small companies in the NYC metro area, I have always managed to leave my mark by improving processes beyond my job description but I have not been able to move forward into a more advanced role like a Project Manager, or Design Engineer, or Programmer. Largely because the company structure wouldn't allow for it. I don't let this discourage me, I have continued to get as many certifications as I can reasonably schedule, and improve my skills along the way.

Ultimately, I'm looking for a bit of direction/mentorship. Ideally I would like to move to environment where I can graduate to a more advanced position. Is that actually possible for me at this point or am I missing a key piece of the puzzle?
